In some instances, it might be necessary to change the installation directory of your Cribl Edge agent on Windows. The need might arise from using a separate drive letter assigned to a network mount, or using a non-standard directory structure for program installations.

    This is done with the APPLICATIONROOTDIRECTORY parameter and can be called in command line with something similar to this but edited for the environment:

    msiexec.exe /i Cribl-Edge-4.0.0-4eee3fda-windows-installer.msi APPLICATIONROOTDIRECTORY="C:\test" /L*V "C:\Log\CriblInstall.log" COMMAND="mode-managed-edge -H .cribl.cloud -p 4200 -u -g default -S true"
